Currently running 4.6 Ghz, 4.8 is the max in the setting, but when using that it wont boot.. Solutions?

It's now actually doing 1.3-1.4V

When running prime95 for a minute or two, I got ~80C , so I'm lowering from 4.6 to 4.4 GhZ, I don't want to risk it too much.

4.4 GhZ now. SuperPi takes 8 seconds to calculate 1 Million Pi digits.
Above are the results of Prime95 Torture Test (2nd option, full usage etc.) and CoreTemp.
So, I'll keep it running over night now and in the morning hope my house isn't burned down or my PC has a BSoD?

after running for ~10 min
Please respond if it's safe for my hardware to let this test run over night.

Running @4.4 GhZ for about 15 minutes, and it is ~85 degrees C.. Do I have to keep running the test overnight or should I stop the test, is this overclock even safe for my hardware like this? or should I go back to @4.2 GhZ , or just not OC at all..?
Anyways, it should not be hitting those temps on idle. At load, sure, but its still kinda high. Over 90 is a dangerous area, so keeping it far away from that is preferable. But your computer has fail-safes in it that prevent it from doing major damage. Your PC will just turn off if it hits critical stages.

~60ish were idle. Anyway

Try running lower voltages.
You should always try to get the lowest stable VCORE.

Go to your BIOS and activate it there. Simples.

Should learn to manually overclock.
Usually the Auto OC will run higher voltages.
